    Ferrari's on Disc 1 acheivement

    Nice tip, I was considering buying them with tokens too. Cheeky T10 for blocking that though... probably just another way to try and stop the cheats though, I imagine

     

    I only bought them with tokens because a friend and I decided if we each bought 2 of the top 5, we could trade with each other, both get the Exclusive Taste achievement and both save a bit of cash.

     

    Once we had bought them though, we tried to swap and the game wouldn't let us, so I ended up just buying the 2 I needed with tokens too :rolleyes:

    Preorders That Arrive Before Release Date

    in Gaming Discussion

    Posted

    I never pre-order games, why pay $120 for a game when it first comes when I can get it six months later for $70 - $80

     

    Fair point but also remember that many games now have bonuses for pre-ordering and even though some are a waste, there are others that are damn nice like BF3's FREE B2K Pack when it comes out in December.

     

    Hell yeah!

     

    Plus add in all the leaderboard style challenges games come out with now. If you've played last years NFS Hot Pursuit, you'll have seen Autolog, a feature which compares your race times with that of your friends and encourages you to try to become the fastest therefore adding replay value to the game.

     

    Then you've got rivals mode in Forza 4, which is all about competition amongst friends.

     

    It all comes down to how much you enjoy online I guess, the week Forza 4 was released ~15 of my friends on XBL were playing it, whereas if I were to go on now, I would struggle to find 3 or 4.

     

    6 months on, will there be anyone playing?

    Preorders That Arrive Before Release Date

    in Gaming Discussion

    Posted

    As many of you will know, when you preorder a game, sometimes it will arrive early.

     

    The question I was wondering was, do you play it straight away?

     

    I'm aware that certain big games, MW3 is immediately apparent, have strict rules applied to those who play early, but do all games?

     

    I know there's probably an official source on this, but I was more looking for some actual gamers' opinions, so post away :)

    Ferrari's on Disc 1 acheivement

    in Driving & Racing Games

    Posted

    Well this thread quickly turned in to an argument, why post if not too help?

     

    You may think I'm doing the same, but no...

     

    I own all the Ferraris, and have the achievement so :p

     

    I'm willing to loan out a couple at a time for people if they want the achievement, just make sure you only need a few cars, I'm not going to gift you all 14, but 2 or 3 is fine.

     

    Also, I can't gift the 250TR or the 250GTO because I bought those with tokens so the game wont let me.

     

    And finally, to those wondering how I afforded all this, I just played the game. There's an achievement for getting a manufacturer to affinity level 50, so why not choose Ferrari? I realised this early on and since you're buying them all you get plenty of variety for season mode.

     

    Simple. :)

    Updated take on TDU

    I picked the Camaro solely based on it being the cheapest, and did fine with it.

     

    I don't really think it matters what you choose for the cups, as they're not too difficult, but once you start playing online it is so much easier having the best car, stage 4 tuned, to win.

     

    So yes, I agree that the DB9 is the best as I use that online, but we're all going to buy them all in the long run anyway :)

     

    I agree with you on bookmarks though, why can't we at least name them?

    F1 2011 SEASON!

    in Automotive Discussion

    Posted

    because of some riots going on or something like that

     

    This made me laugh :rolleyes:

     

    Apparently Red Bull has developed another unstoppable car (not LITERALLY unstoppable, it does have brakes)

     

    So did this :D

    Also, can't wait for the new season :)

    Well.. i did win all the A1 races with my Atom, so i guess it's all up to the driver. For the straight roads, i just block the Bugatti so he won't overtake me:cheeky:

     

    Yeah, I had to block off the Veyron too, bit of a handful but it's doable :)

    For A1, id say the Atom. Damn cheap compared to the Bugatti:p

     

    I'd avoid the Atom if I were you, yes it's cheaper but when a Veyron overtakes you on a straight there's nothing you can do about it.

     

    If you're looking to save a bit of money I'd recommend something like the Mclaren MP4 12C, only 196,000 and has a decent top speed :)
